Not long, less than a month. Check your mail or ensure you used right address

Very informative thread. Someone should do something similar for UK imports. Nafikiria sana Ford Focus, but sijui kama huku Kenya ni kuzuri (spares availability, etc)
Some people see the glass half full. Others see it half empty.
I see a glass that's twice as big as it needs to be.

Thinking of toyota hilux S/C.

Parts are available... and what is not, you can also import.

I have sent in a few Fords from UK, recently... Specifically Ford Ranger and Ford Focus.

Thanks @JkMwatha. Why do you think people seem to be so averse to Ford Focus? I had started this thread earlier today - guys seem to avoid posting in it just the same way that they avoid the Ford Focus smile

I'm not sure why its avoided, may be people stick to what they know... Its like the fear of diesel cars.

Or may be it has to do with availability of parts and good Ford garages/mechanics.

In UK, Ford Focus holds its value (resale value) better than any other Ford and better that several other makes.

A little digress! @JkMwatha. What is the best bargain for Toyota S/C pickup ex UK?

S/C ???...Assuming you mean Hilux single cab pickup? Both 4x4 & 4x2

CIF MSA for a 2007/8 - GBP 9000-13000 depending upon condition and mileage.

(The current exchange rate is 'not funny' GBP -KES)

Thank you @JkMwatha. Not cheap.
